Serving Waynesboro, Augusta County & the Shenandoah Valley

Poster describes a non-lethal method using 3.5 mm dermal biopsy plugs and PIT tags to monitor total mercury (THg) in smallmouth and largemouth bass along 26 miles of the South River. Methods, size classes, and sampling from 2009–2011 are presented; biopsy plugs closely predict filet THg though additional data are recommended to confirm the plug-filet relationship.
